Miriam Dean is retiring after 12 years as chair of New Zealand’s Banking Ombudsman Scheme, having guided it through major shifts including digital banking, rising scams, and consumer protection reforms.
Under her leadership, the scheme expanded its reach, launched a world-first complaint tracking dashboard, and boosted public awareness through education initiatives like a TV documentary.
A 2024 review called the scheme a credible force in fair banking.
She will be succeeded by Michael Heron KC in January.
